Question 9

Which of the following statements about static testing and dynamic testing is TRUE?

A. Dynamic testing can only be applied to executable work products, while static testing can only be applied to non-executable work products. B. Security vulnerabilities can only be detected when the software is being executed, and thus they can only be detected through dynamic testing, not through static testing C. Static testing is better suited than dynamic testing for highlighting issues that could indicate inappropriate code modulansation. D. Both dynamic testing and static testing cause failures, but failures caused by static testing are usually easier and cheaper to analyse.
